Folks:
I'm interested in information about Beesy (Bridget) CARROLL from the village of
Ballyglass in the townland of Bunnacranagh, Co. Sligo. She married James PEYTON before
1867 and had at least 8 children (Thomas, b. 1867; Ellen, b. 1869; Patrick, b. 1871; Mary,
my GGrandmother, b. January 1874; James, b. 1878; Martin, b. 1880; Joseph, b. 1883; and,
possibly Bridget, whose birthdate remains unknown).
Beesy's siblings probably included Michael & John, but that has not been
confirmed. After her wedding in 1900, Mary Peyton moved to her husband (Roger FEELY)'s
home in Eskragh, near Tobercurry, just 2 or 3 miles from her family in Ballyglass. I
don't have much else on Bessy's ancestors, not even her parent's names. It
also appears that there were Carrolls living in Eskragh during the 1901 & 1911
censuses, but I'm not sure if they are related. Any suggestions or info would be
appreciated.
Thanks,
